  2. 2 Place cubed potatoes into the pan of bacon fat and set heat to medium. Season with salt, black pepper, and cayenne.

  2. 2 Split potato and remove flesh. Push flesh through a strainer using the back of a wooden spoon in order to achieve a granular texture. Add a pinch of salt and let cool for about 10 minutes.
  3. 3 Add beaten egg to potato and stir, using the tines of a fork and trying not to mash the potato. Add about 1/3 cup flour and continue to stir gently with the fork until mixture starts to come together. You may need another pinch or two of flour. Fold mixture with a spatula until dough forms a mass, adding flour as needed. Using your fingers, knead dough gently to form a ball, about 10 seconds.
  4. 4 Shape dough on a floured surface into a fat log. Cut log into four pieces. Gently roll each piece using your fingertips to form a "snake" or a long rope of dough, starting from the center and rolling toward the end until dough is about 1/2-inch thick.
  5. 5 Cut each rope into 1/2-inch pieces, then roll each piece quickly down the back of a fork's tines to form ridges.
  6. 6 Heat marinara sauce in a skillet while you cook the gnocchi.
